I really like to serve crispy puff pastry cheese sticks to puree soups. The meal is light and at the same time delicious. I cook crispy straws with both regular hard cheese and cottage cheese. Sometimes I add some finely chopped ham or spicy salami to the filling. Spicy olives and sun-dried tomatoes are also good as an addition to cheese. In this case, cheese sticks have a new interesting taste.

Puff pastry cheese sticks are excellent snacks for friendly gatherings. Usually they disappear in the blink of an eye, one has only to put the dish with them on the table. So make a double crunchy treat right away to have enough for everyone!
